Like Barolo, also
Barbaresco is a great wine for roasted meats. Full bodied, yet gentle,
of fine and elegant structure. When properly kept in oak casks, it
refines its organoleptic characters and becomes suitable for a long
ageing.
In the last years Barbaresco has emerged from the shadow of its senior
brother Barolo to obtain the rightful respect and admiration of the
connoisseurs.
